This set celebrates the 75th anniversary of the edifice that houses the West Point Mint. Each set includes one Silver Eagle Reverse Proof PF69 or PF70 struck at the West Point Mint and bearing the "W" mint mark and one Silver Eagle Enhanced SP69 or SP70 struck at the West Point Mint and bearing the "W" mint mark. Your set comes in Original Government Packaging (OGP) which is encased in a highly polished, blue lacquered, hardwood presentation case and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.

The design on the coin's obverse was taken from the "Walking Liberty" design by Adolph A. Weinman, which originally had been used on the Walking Liberty Half Dollar coin of the United States from 1916 to 1947. As this iconic design had been a public favorite, and one of the most beloved designs of any coinage of modern times, it was revived for the Silver Eagle decades later. The obverse is inscribed with the year of minting or issuance, the word Liberty, and the phrase 'In God We Trust'.

The reverse was designed by John Mercanti and portrays a Heraldic Eagle behind a shield; the eagle grasps an olive branch in its right talon and arrows in its left talon, echoing the Great Seal of the United States; above the eagle are 13 five-pointed stars representing the Thirteen Colonies. It is inscribed with the phrases United States of America, 1 oz. Fine Silver, One Dollar, and E Pluribus Unum.

About the Designs:
The first coin features a reverse proof finish, with the raised design elements appearing mirrored and the background fields appearing frosted, or the reverse arrangement of the traditional proof finish. This coin was first offered in the 25th Anniversary set in 2006 and has since been offered in special sets in 2011 and 2012.

The second coin included in the set features an enhanced uncirculated finish, which was created by using a mixture of uncirculated, lightly frosted, and heavily frosted finishes. On the obverse, the mountains, red strikes and blue fields of the flag, Liberty’s sandals, and the date carry a heavily frosted finish. On the reverse, the ribbon held in the eagle’s beak, arrows, olive branch, and portions of the shield carry a heavily frosted finish. The remaining design elements or inscriptions carry an uncirculated finish. The background fields carry a lightly frosted finish. This contrast of three different finishes brings a fresh look to the classic design.
